On the Philosophy of the Contemporary Globalization
Journal Title: Journal of Globalization Studies - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
In this global reality the key to a constructive solution of political and social problems is not in the hands of politicians; whereas the crisis creates an impression (‘an illusion’) that new social and political problems could be solved in the framework of the old, pre-global structures. Therefore, at the societies' meso-level the global crisis also becomes a political one. At the national-etatic meso-level of globalization this phenomenon is also outdated and supports the action of yesterday concepts, even more, that also the political plausibility can come up, that such outdated and yesterday concepts of the national-etatic level could be successfully put forward now against the negative effects of globalization. The negative development is thus also doubled.
